Song lyrics
State the obvious 
I didn’t get my perfect fantasy 
I realize you love yourself more than you could ever love me 
So go and tell your friends that I'm obsessive and crazy 
That’s fine; i'll tell mine you're gay and by the way....

I hate that stupid old pick up truck you never let me drive 
You're a redneck heartbreak 
Who’s really bad at lying 
So watch me strike a match on all my wasted time 
As far as I'm concerned you're just another picture to burn. 

There's no time for tears 
I'm just sitting here planning my revenge 
There's nothing stopping me 
From goin' out with all of your best friends. 
And if you come around 
Saying sorry to me 
My daddy’s gonna show you how sorry you'll be 

'Cause I hate that stupid old pick up truck you never let me drive 
You're a redneck heartbreak 
Who’s really bad at lying 
So watch me strike a match on all my wasted time 
As far as I'm concerned you're just another picture to burn. 

And if you're missing me 
You better keep it to yourself 
Cuz coming back around here 
Would be bad for your health 

'Cause I hate that stupid old pick up truck you never let me drive 
You're a redneck heartbreak 
Who’s really bad at lying 
So watch me strike a match on all my wasted time 
In case you haven’t heard 

I really really hate that stupid old pick up truck you never let me drive 
You're a redneck heartbreak 
Who’s really bad at lying 
So watch me strike a match on all my wasted time 
As far as I'm concerned you're just another picture to burn 

Burn, burn, burn, baby, burn
you're just another picture to burn
Baby, burn.....

i love this song...but i think the lyrics are actually "so watch me strike a match on all my wasted time" rather than "strike out mad"

My boyfriend's sister just broke up with her boyfriend, and I heard this song a few days later. I sent it to her and she LOVED it. It really captures how just about EVERY girl should feel after a bad break up. "No time for tears, I'm just sitting here planning my revenge"

Not to mention that I've fallen in love with Taylor Swift's music already. She's very real, not all glitz and glamour like a lot of today's music artists are.

I got Taylor's CD for Christmas and this was one of the first songs i listened to. This song is almost written to a tee for my ex-boyfriend. The funny thingis that my ex doesn't need to worry about my daddy's revenge but all my "big brothers"! I LOVE this song!!!

I am absolutely in love with this song. My boyfriend and I broke up about a week ago and I swear, this song has been my anthem since then. I love this girl AND this song!!

This is my fave on the whole CD.

I was incredibly disappointed by this song. I loved Tim McGraw, and the sweet quality of her voice. After hearing this, I'm certain that her voice for the first single was done completely on the computer. I saw her perform this live on CMT, and I had to change the channel because her voice caused me physical pain. Note how strained she sounds on the line "Realize you love yourself more than you could ever love me." For a professional...she should at least know her own range.

The lyrics are...fine. Cute, catchy, but nothing incredibly original. The line about telling his friends he's gay makes her sound like a twelve year old, but I did enjoy the part about her daddy. The music itself is good, makes you want to get up and dance around.

As I said before...I liked Taylor's first single, but her voice in this...sheesh. It ruins any respect I had for her before.

Amazing beat and graceful singing, I think that she expresses an amazing amount of passion and heart in all of her songs.
